You can set this as the default if you wish or those you follow which if you do as I do and follow those of a similar ability to you will give you tables that have times that are more achievable.
@welsh dragon it could just be the exercise, my thighs hurt a little today.
@Stonechat its more boring than watching football.

I can't find the option to set the default to your own results.

Wouldn't mind some Cat 3 or bigger hills around here just to see how far I can get up before dismounting

Just set to I'm Following and it will automatically include you in those results.

Edit: My bad, I'm guessing you want a list of all your results shown as in My results?

wow @fivepence when I saw the mentions of hills I thought "I wonder if" and it turns out it was more impressive than I thought it would be.

To be honest STRAVA makes it look a monster more than it actually is, more of a long steady roller than a gruelling bank. Picture I took on the move as I got towards the top of it earlier

Another picture from today , just a couple of miles from home show hills are not exactly hard found in my neck of the woods

True sorry for misleading info.

@fivepence a hill will look worse the longer the ride as it fitted into the same space a short ride it, so even a gradual 300ft climb can look quite steep if its on a longish ride.

The nearest to my that I have done is about a 12 mile ride.

@fivepence You should come my end, your start or end point to hartington, bakewell, baslow and then chesterfield along the quiet top ashgate road (bottom road is where the HGVs live) ending at the station. The last section from Baslow has a short climb then it's down steep hills till the end for about 12 miles. Those 12 miles have many many pubs on them as well.

 

[Nigelnaturist]

Not the quickest nor slowest of those I follow.

600ft over 3.9 miles.
I have done once last year and I am currently 362 out of 537

Its not the worst I have done I think that is this and its not classified

http://app.strava.com/segments/1138013
Works out at 425ft/mile

 

[Nigelnaturist]

I have a 50+ mile ride with what appears to be at least 4 cat 4's but whether they are segments on strava or even cat 4's on strava is another matter.

Not been Baslow but I know Hartington and Bakewell for sure so might check it out on route planner to sort out a nice loop over and back the green bit on the map

No worries. I got all excited for a sec as this would be my default view if it existed.

Yes. Maybe they'll add this in a future version.
